History Anime / TheLastNarutoTheMovie

* BreakTheHaughty: [spoiler: Toneri is humbled by the end of the movie. He realizes that he doesn't have speical mision, and has accomplished nothingbut caused trouble for many people. Compare his speaking tone at the beginning of the movie to the one at the end.

* AdultFear: Several present:
** For Hiashi: Your children get kidnapped and their [[OrganTheft organs get removed]].
** For Naruto: The woman you love [[spoiler:coldly rejects you and abandons you for another man]], only two days after you finally [[LoveEpiphany realize just how important she's always been to you]].
** For Hinata: Just when the man you've been in love with your whole life finally loves you back, [[spoiler:you can't be with him]]. And on top of that, because of yet another AdultFear to boot: your little sister has been kidnapped. Basically, you are forced to choose between two of the most important people in your life.
** Hanabi's kidnapping. A young girl is at home and suddenly hears strange noises, and she gets abducted before she can do anything to defend herself. Very terrifying, especially to those who have experienced home invasions before.

* HypnotizeThePrincess: Played Straight with [[spoiler:Hinata right after Toneri catches her in the act of trying to destroy his Tenseigan Core orb]].

* TheDogBitesBack: Or, more accurately, [[spoiler:she gouges her sister's eyes out of your eyesockets]]. Given that Toneri kidnaps her sister, removes her eyes, almost kills the man she loves, [[spoiler: forces her into a position where she had to break the heart of the man she truly loves. cruelly turns her into one of his puppets, and stuffs her into a cage to watch as he tries to kill the man she loves again, Hinata's]] extreme reaction is definitely understandable.

* ForegoneConclusion: People who read the manga to the very end know exactly whether or not Naruto and Hinata become a couple: [[spoiler:TheyDo.]] As a result, the movie is less a case of WillTheyOrWontThey, and more of a case of "''How'' Will They". Also, the moon isn't going to destroy the earth, since Konoha is completely in tact in the DistantFinale.

* TheChosenOne: It's revealed that Hinata [[spoiler:is the Byakugan Princess, which means that she is the only one that can yield Hamura Otsutsuki's chakra, the only thing that can resist Toneri's Chakra Drain, destroy his Tenseigan Core orb and harm him]]. Somewhat {{Subverted|Trope}} in that [[spoiler:she lacks the brute strength required to destroy the Tenseigan Core orb and fight Toneri on her own and has to combine her Eight Trigrams Twin Lions Crumbling Attack with Naruto's Rasengan in order to eventually fulfill her destiny]].

* BridalCarry: Naruto carries Hinata like this a couple of times in the movie's climax.
* TheBusCameBack: After not appearing for six hundred chapters (except in a dream), Hanabi, Hinata's younger sister, appears in this movie. In order to make her reappearance easier to swallow, [[AdaptationExpansion the anime]] aired two episodes that retell most of the series from her perspective; the first episode even aired the same week the film was released in Japan.

* CallForward: Plenty towards the epilogue.

** Toneri is one to Hinata.

** For Hinata: Just when the man you've been in love with your whole life finally loves you back, [[spoiler:you just can't be with him]]. And on top of that, because of yet another AdultFear to boot: your little sister has been kidnapped. Basically, you are forced to choose between two of the most important people in your life.

* AlienSky: When the Hanabi Rescue Team passes through the strange cave, they look up and see the ocean and an island in the middle of the sky. The reason for this is because the cave is actually a passageway between the Earth and the Moon and the Moon is a HollowWorld where the internal curvature of the Moon causes faraway terrain to appear in the sky.
* AllForNothing: [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata]] avert this. [[spoiler:Toneri]], on the other hand, plays it straight.

* AlmightyJanitor: Naruto is ''still'' a genin. Though at this point, seeing as his sensei is now ''Hokage'', it's probably due to a lack of concern and/or interest more than anything else.

* AndNowYouMustMarryMe: Toneri tries to do this to Hinata.

* AttackAttackAttack: What Toneri employs against Naruto in the FinalBattle. Spamming rocks, spamming truth orbs, and a giant chakra laser. All cause massive damage, but leaves him with a lot of openings for Naruto's counterattacks.

* BabiesEverAfter: TheStinger shows [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's children, Boruto and Himawari]].
* BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: Naruto's fight against Toneri in the moon definitely qualifies.
* BattleCouple: Naruto and Hinata. By [[HoldingHands holding each other's hands]], [[spoiler:they share and combine their unique chakras to destroy Toneri's Tenseigan Core orb, fusing Naruto's Rasengan with Hinata's Eight Trigrams Twin Lions Crumbling Attack. The scene where they do this even has them standing like a bride and groom facing the altar]].

* BigBad: Toneri Otsutsuki, a descendant of Kaguya. His goal is to use the moon to destroy Earth, as punishment for "abusing" chakra.
* TheBigDamnKiss: Twice, unsurprisingly, between [[OfficialCouple Naruto and Hinata]].
** Bonus points for the first instance. How damn big it is? It's [[FanPreferredCouple Naruto and Hinata]] sharing a [[HollywoodKiss Hollywood-like]] FirstKiss [[TrueLovesKiss of True Love]] [[SmoochOfVictory after defeating Toneri]], it was [[LongRunner 15 years]] of ShipTease [[RelationshipUpgrade in the making]], and they form a FullMoonSilhouette while [[LoveFloats gracefully floating]] [[FlightOfRomance high in the air]]! [[UpToEleven Doesn't get bigger than that]].

* BreakTheHaughty: This happens to Toneri by the end. Compare his speaking tone at the beginning of the movie to the one at the end.
* BreakoutCharacter: Hinata, for the main franchise, in what is easily one of the most extreme cases of this in recent history. Her popularity was so great that she is promoted from supporting to main character, goes from having [[UnresolvedSexualTension significant]] ShipTease with Naruto to becoming his main love interest, and has this canonical movie entirely dedicated to how she and Naruto fell in love.

* ApologyGift: [[spoiler: Upon Toneri's request, Hinata spends her time at his castle knitting him a scarf like the one she made for Naruto. In reality, she is planing to give this new scarf to Naruto as a way to replace the one that got destroyed, to reaffirm her love for him, and to apologize for hurting his feelings by pretending to reject his love confession. Although this new scarf gets ripped to shreds by Toneri, Naruto accepts it anyway]].

** [[spoiler:The look in Hinata's eyes as she watches Naruto fall to earth after she "rejected" him just screams this.]]
** [[spoiler: Toneri falls to his knees after learning the truth about Hamura.]]

* OutOfCharacterAlert: [[spoiler:Hinata "rejecting" Naruto's LoveConfession and "accepting" Toneri's marriage proposal]] tips off [[ShipperOnDeck Sakura]], who in turn tells Naruto that it's obviously a ruse, that [[spoiler:Hinata]] has a plan up her sleeve in saving her sister, and that [[spoiler:Hinata]] isn't that fickle with her true feelings. Later, when [[spoiler:Hinata]] is forced to fight Naruto, her expressionless face tips off Naruto that she is under mind-control, who promptly proceeds to undo the control without harming her.

* SecondActBreakup: In the second act of the movie, Naruto finally confesses his love to Hinata after he spent some time [[EveryoneCanSeeIt blatantly showing his feelings for her]] and found himself [[CannotSpitItOut unable to spit it out]]. The "breakup" part happens when [[MomentKiller the tender moment gets ruined]] by Toneri's arrival and Hinata [[spoiler:coldly "rejects" Naruto and walks into Toneri's arms]]. Seeing his rival in love in distress, Toneri [[KickTheDog taunts Naruto further]] by telling him that [[spoiler:he and Hinata are going to get married]]. The nail in the coffin is when Naruto ''begs'' Hinata to tell him that everything that just transpired is all a lie...[[spoiler:only for Hinata to avert her eyes and stay silent, which leaves Naruto utterly heartbroken]]. {{Subverted|Trope}} in that [[spoiler:the "breakup" isn't real and Hinata's behavior throughout the entire scene is all just an act--Hinata is still deeply in love with Naruto, and she only pretended to "reject" him and "accept" Toneri's marriage proposal as part of her plan to rescue Hanabi and destroy the Tenseigan core orb. When she's later reunited with Naruto, she immediately apologizes to him for hurting his feelings, though Naruto tells her he already understands why she did it, and forgives her]].

* UnrequitedLoveSwitcheroo: PlayedWith. While Hinata does still love Naruto, by the first act of the movie she thinks that she will forever be a HopelessSuitor and decides to stop pursuing him. Thus, when Naruto realizes he's in love with her, [[{{Irony}} she is completely oblivious to his very obvious feelings]]. When he confesses his love to her, she is incredibly happy about this... [[spoiler:for a moment. She chooses to "reject" him, not because she doesn't reciprocate but because she had already resolved to "accept" Toneri's marriage proposal as a ploy to save Hanabi]]. Of course, it all works out by the end of the movie [[spoiler:as Hinata wholeheartedly accepts Naruto's proposal and they ''finally'' become an [[OfficialCouple Official Couple]].]]

** In their final fight, while Hinata is locked in a cage, Toneri could have easily defeated Naruto by using his chakra drain on him. Instead he opts to have a big flashy CockFight with him in order to test his Tenseigan and brutally kill Naruto in [[ForcedToWatch front of Hinata]]. [[spoiler:It doesn't end very well for him]], as noted in the HumiliationConga entry.

* ApologyGift: [[spoiler: Upon Toneri's request, Hinata spends her time at his castle knitting him a scarf like the one she made for Naruto. In reality, she was planing to give this new one to Naruto as a way to replace the one that was destroyed, to reaffirm her love for him, and to apologize for hurting his feelings by pretending to reject his love confession. Although this new one gets ripped to shreds, Naruto accepts it anyway]].

* BlatantLies: Toneri claims that Hinata came to him on her own free will, and thus believes that she loves him instead of Naruto. He seems to ignore the effect of holding Hanabi hostage had on Hinata's decision, and that Hinata made it abundantly clear that she neither loves him nor does she agree with his plan to destroy Earth.

* TheDogBitesBack: Or, more accurately, [[spoiler:she gouges her sister's eyes out of your eyesockets]]. Given that Toneri kidnaps her sister, removes her eyes, almost kills the man she loves, [[spoiler:cruelly turns her into one of his puppets, and stuffs her into a cage to watch as he tries to kill the man she loves again, Hinata's]] extreme reaction is definitely understandable.

* OutOfCharacterAlert: [[spoiler:Hinata's "rejection"]] tips off [[ShipperOnDeck Sakura]], who in turn tells Naruto that it's obviously a ruse, that [[spoiler:Hinata]] has a plan up her sleeve in saving her sister, and that [[spoiler:Hinata]] isn't that fickle with her true feelings. Later, when [[spoiler:Hinata]] is forced to fight Naruto, her expressionless face tips off Naruto that she is under mind-control, who promptly proceeds to undo the control without harming her.

* SecondActBreakup: In the second act of the movie, Naruto finally confesses his love to Hinata after he spent some time [[EveryoneCanSeeIt blatantly showing his feelings for her]] and found himself [[CannotSpitItOut unable to spit it out]]. The "breakup" part happens when [[MomentKiller the tender moment gets ruined]] by Toneri's arrival and Hinata [[spoiler:coldly "rejects" Naruto and walks into Toneri's arms]]. Seeing his rival in love in distress, Toneri [[KickTheDog taunts Naruto further]] by telling him that [[spoiler:he and Hinata are going to get married]]. The nail in the coffin is when Naruto ''begs'' Hinata to tell him that everything that just transpired is all a lie...[[spoiler:only for Hinata to avert her eyes and stay silent, which leaves Naruto utterly heartbroken]]. {{Subverted|Trope}} in that [[spoiler:the "breakup" isn't real and Hinata's behavior throughout the entire sequence is all just an act--Hinata is still deeply in love with Naruto, and she only "accepted" Toneri's marriage proposal as part of her plan to rescue Hanabi and destroy the Tenseigan core orb. When she's later reunited with Naruto, she immediately apologizes to him for hurting his feelings, with Naruto telling her he already understands why she did it]].

* ShipSinking: WordOfGod even states that this movie is not only the story of how Naruto and Hinata fell in love, but it is the story of how Naruto and Sakura parted ways, even though this already happened in Chapter 469.

* ForWantOfANail: [[AllThereInTheManual In the novelization]], as Naruto and Hinata are leaving the moon and returning to Konoha, he tells her that he and Toneri are NotSoDifferent due to the two of them being orphaned children, and if he didn't have her and their comrades in Konoha, he might have ended up like Toneri.

* NotSoDifferent: [[AllThereInTheManual In the novelization]], during Naruto and Toneri's CockFight on the moon, they both remember the pain of being orphaned children--Toneri recalls being in a TroubledFetalPosition while alone on the moon's surface, and Naruto recalls sitting alone on a swing in a park. Later on, Naruto tells Hinata that due to their lonely childhoods, he and Toneri are "kind of similar."

* ForegoneConclusion: People who read the manga to the very end know exactly whether Naruto and Hinata WillTheyOrWontThey, and the movie is more a case of "''How'' Will They". Also, the moon isn't going to destroy the village, since it's intact in the DistantFinale.

* PoorlyTimedConfession: When Naruto confesses his love to Hinata, she's depressed about Hanabi, so she doesn't respond. Then [[MomentKiller Toneri ruins the moment]], and Hinata [[spoiler:coldly "rejects" Naruto and goes with Toneri (in order to save Hanabi). Thinking it's a real rejection]], Naruto does not take it well, nearly gets killed, passes out for three days, and comes very close to ''giving up on everything''. Thankfully [[ShipperOnDeck Sakura]] sets him straight.

* ThemeTuneCameo: A [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Du4ZBGUmYUU reprised version]] of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daPo6q4FXDw the main theme of the the first series]] is used as a RecurringRiff throughout the film. The actual theme itself plays during the final battle.

* RealityEnsues: As the canonical {{Interquel}} between the last two chapters of the manga, in this movie it is revealed that [[WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove Naruto does not completely understand the concept of romantic love]], thinking that Hinata's love for him was like his love of ramen. When you consider the fact that Naruto never had the unconditional affection that most people had with their families due to being both an orphan and the village pariah for most of his childhood, [[FridgeBrilliance it actually makes a lot of sense]]. Naruto would be starved for any sort of affection, and would have a hard time differentiating them and takes a great amount of time, love and patience to heal. Luckily, [[OneTrueLove Hinata]] has that in spades for Naruto.

The film was released in theaters in Japan on December 8, 2014

* BreakHisHeartToSaveHim: {{Zig Zagged}}. Hinata [[spoiler:breaks Naruto's heart, not to save him but [[BigSisterInstinct to save Hanabi]]. Nevertheless, she later apologizes to him for doing so. Naruto, of course, forgives her.]]* BreakTheHaughty: This happens to Toneri by the end. Compare his speaking tone at the beginning of the movie to the one at the end.

Despite the action-orientated premise and plot, the central theme of the story is actually [[RomanceArc Naruto and Hinata's relationship]] and how they became the main OfficialCouple in the end.

This movie's versions of Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, Hinata, Hanabi, and Kakashi are all playable in ''VideoGame/NarutoShippudenUltimateNinjaStorm4'', the first time since Doto Kazehana from ''Anime/NarutoTheMovieNinjaClashInTheLandOfSnow'' that a movie character is playable in an ''Ultimate Ninja'' game.

* ApologyGift: [[spoiler:The red scarf that Hinata knits for Naruto during her time at Toneri's castle is this.]]

* BreakTheHaughty: This happens to Toneri by the end. Compare his speaking tone at the beginning of the movie to the one at the end.

** GenderInverted with Naruto upon ''finally'' realizing her feelings for him and seeing how long she's loved him.

* SecondActBreakup: In the second act of the movie, Naruto finally confesses his love to Hinata after he spent some time [[EveryoneCanSeeIt blatantly showing his feelings for her]] and found himself [[CannotSpitItOut unable to spit it out]]. The "breakup" part happens when [[MomentKiller the tender moment gets ruined]] by Toneri's arrival and Hinata [[spoiler:coldly "rejects" Naruto and walks into Toneri's arms]]. Seeing his rival in love in distress, Toneri [[KickTheDog taunts Naruto further]] by telling him that [[spoiler:he and Hinata are going to get married]]. The nail in the coffin is when Naruto ''begs'' Hinata to tell him that everything that just transpired is all a lie...[[spoiler:only for Hinata to avert her eyes and stay silent, which leaves Naruto utterly heartbroken]]. {{Subverted|Trope}} in that [[spoiler:the "breakup" isn't real and Hinata's behavior throughout the entire sequence is all just an act--Hinata is still deeply in love with Naruto, and she only "accepted" Toneri's marriage proposal as part of her plan to rescue Hanabi and destroy the Tenseigan]].

* UnrequitedLoveSwitcheroo: PlayedWith. While Hinata does still love Naruto, by the first act of the movie she thinks that she will forever be a HopelessSuitor and decides to stop pursuing him. Thus, when Naruto realizes he's in love with her, [[{{Irony}} she is completely oblivious to his very obvious feelings]]. When he confesses his love to her, she is incredibly happy about this... [[spoiler:for a moment. She chooses to "reject" him, not because she doesn't reciprocate but because she had already resolved to "accept" Toneri's marriage proposal as a ploy to save Hanabi]]. Of course, it all works out in the end [[spoiler:as Hinata wholeheartedly accepts Naruto's proposal and they ''finally'' become an [[OfficialCouple Official Couple]].]]

* OfficialCouple: Naruto and Hinata. The movie is the story of how they fell in love.

** In ''[[LightNovel/SakuraHidenThoughtsofLoveRidingUponaSpringBreeze Sakura Hiden]]'' we learn that [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata had been teased by older ninja and former classmates after the news of them returning from the moon as OfficialCouple spread like wildfire.]]

** Naruto, because Toneri tried to steal Hinata from him,[[spoiler:turned her into one of his puppets through mind-control, force her into marrying him, and spitefully destroyed the red scarf she worked so hard to make]].

** The Fourth Raikage, A, plays this straight. His plan to blow up the moon as a last resort makes perfect sense from a pragmatic standpoint - but doing so while a Hyuga and several Leaf ninja are on there is met with understandable derision from some of Naruto's allies.

* SerialEscalation: Even more so than the Fourth Shinobi World War. And this time, there are giant falling rocks that can blow up a planet, FrickinLaserBeams, and Naruto having a CockFight with Toneri over Hinata, ''IN SPACE!''

* FlowerInHerHair: As shown in the ending credits and TheStinger, for [[spoiler:Naruto and Hinata's]] wedding, Hinata wears a white flower in her hair during the ceremony, and then two red flowers in her hair during the reception.

* UnrequitedLoveSwitcheroo: PlayedWith. While Hinata does still love Naruto, by the first act of the movie she thinks that she will forever be a HopelessSuitor and decides to stop pursuing him. Thus, when Naruto realizes he's in love with her, [[{{Irony}} she is completely oblivious to his very obvious feelings]]. When he confesses his love to her, she is incredibly happy about this... [[spoiler:for a moment. She chooses to "reject" him, not because she doesn't reciprocate but because she had already resolved to "accept" Toneri's marriage proposal as a ploy to save Hanabi]]. Of course, it all works out in the end [[spoiler:as Hinata wholeheartedly accepts Naruto's proposal and they ''finally'' become a [[OfficialCouple couple]].]]
